Did you guys see that Labour failed to reference a couple of quotes/paraphrases in their Future of Work paper? What's the bet it'll be a bigger story than the TPP on 3 tonight. e: Hone's signature owns exmarx fucked around with this message at 04:20 on Jul 31, 2015 |

I wonder if that's part of it; maybe he knows how odd it makes him look, but since the media can't resist slamming him it'll get more airtime than a more formal letter would?

Generally if it's in square brackets it's something that they've added for clarity. If it was his mistake, you'd put in [sic] to indicate the error was in the original text.

nope (square brackets means that it's been added to the quote)

Fairfax fired most of their subeditors recently, and I wouldn't be surprised if other news orgs were doing similar.

I finally figured out what I dislike so much about paddy gower. It's that he doesn't care about actual politics, like he doesn't seem interested in covering party policy or anything. He's only in it for the scoop and drama, basically the bullshit that makes politics and politicians so contemptible. He loving loves the worst part of politics
|
# ? Jul 31, 2015 08:40 |
I think he wanted to be a sports reporter originally? And yeah, I don't think he has a partisan bias, he's just a bad political journalist who lets himself be led easily by e.g. the dirty politics brigade.

I still think he leans right, his coverage of Labour stuff is often a lot harsher than National. You can see it in the assumptions he makes. Dude does a lot of conjecturing on twitter

Or ancient Celts, one or the other.
